Family & Divorce Solicitor in Arnold

Paulette helps families in Arnold and nearby Daybrook and Redhill navigate the legal side of separation. From agreeing who stays in the family home to arranging time with the children, she gives practical, common-sense guidance.

Her work for Arnold clients covers divorce from application to final order, financial settlements, children matters and separation agreements. Many Arnold clients are long-standing homeowners with mortgages, savings and pensions built up over years, and she makes sure all of these are properly considered.

Appointments can be by phone, by video or in person by arrangement. Lots of people prefer to begin with a phone call to explain what is happening, then arrange a longer meeting once they are ready.

Arnold clients often tell her they value being listened to. She takes the time to understand your circumstances before recommending a way forward.

Separation can be especially hard when one of you has been the main earner and the other has focused on raising the family. Paulette explains how the law recognises both kinds of contribution, and what a fair outcome might look like in your circumstances.

She can also help Arnold parents agree a routine for the children that works around school, work and wider family, and record it so that everyone knows what to expect.

Questions from people in Arnold

Do I have to move out of the family home?

Not necessarily. Moving out can have practical and financial consequences, so it is best to get advice before making that decision.

How is the house divided?

There is no automatic split. The court looks at needs, especially those of children, as well as contributions and resources.

Can my spouse and I use the same solicitor?

No. Each person needs independent advice, but Paulette can work constructively with your spouse's solicitor to reach agreement.
